Tiger King's Jeff Lowe is getting his own television series.

He and his wife Lauren, who were big figures in the Netflix phenomenon, will be starring in their own reality TV show.

Jeff says the new show will divulge more information on his turbulent relationship with Joe Exotic.

He told People what the new show will focus on:

"It'll be our narrative on the Tiger King with evidence to support our sides of the stories. And it will be about the transfer of all these beautiful animals from Joe's facility to the new facility," 

"And then the day-to-day struggle of running something as big as a 60-acre animal park and all the intricacies of the employment of zookeepers and fighting all of the animal rights groups."

Jeff, and his wife Lauren have plans to open a new zoo, Tiger King Park, in Oklahoma later this year. The couple were recently given 120 days to vacate The G.W. Exotic Animal Memorial Park, the zoo which was the focus of the Netflix series, after control has handed over to Carole Baskin.

Jeff and Lauren say the aim of the new show is to prove that these big cat zoos can be "done right".

Lauren added that:

"Just showing the animals going from small enclosures to bigger enclosures. We just want to put a brighter light on things because everybody wants to put a horrible light on roadside zoos. Every zoo is off of a road."

An exact date for the new show has yet to be confirmed.
